The Sulzer SMXL multitube mixer/heat exchanger provides improved heating or cooling of viscous media at high throughput’s. It is the perfect alternative when the flow is too high to be handled by the monotube variant.
With the multitube mixer, the main stream is divided into several partial pipe streams with the same operation mode as the monotube design. However, unlike the monotube heat exchanger, the SMXL multitube has no restrictions with regard to product or heat to be transferred.
The SMXL can be particularly advantageous for use in applications where part of the product starts evaporating whilst already in the heat exchanger.
